Racing Attendants Ask
For Increase In Wages
Possibly inspired by the general strike across the channel* or perhaps by the move of the fonctionnaires for a little increase in the monthly stipend, or perhaps by just the increasing cost of living, the racing attendants at Maisons- Laffitte have asked for a boost' in théir wages.
Their présent salary is 24 francs for a working day. They are asking for 30 francs, alleging that the former figure does not permit a decent standard of living.
It is reported their request may be granted.

, Capt.

Sporting Chatter
Action of the United States Lawn Tennis Association in refusing to recognize officially ■ the c,,omiiig visit to America of Suzanne Lenglen, as announced exclusiv{¡ly in The - Tribune yesterday, is hard to fathom on this side.. •
Playing in the movies or participating in exhibition matches is no reason for a player's being black-balled inasmuch as Mr. Tilden, at least, plays an occasional exhibition contest and purports to act—on the stage.
It is reliably reported that the American Association" vould rather have Mlle. Leng'ien participate in matches under its direction. Matches, in other vvords, whose recéipts would go to the American Lawn Tennis Association. The French star vould be sure to draw capacity crowds vherever she played. and in the language vhich Mr. Fred Pyle, erstwhi!e manager of "Red" Grange, knows crovds mean gâte receipts. It is likely that the proposer] tour of Mlle. Lenglen will go through, "officiaI récognition" of no.
It would seem that the Athletics, whom many wise scribes have picked to finish at the top of the American heap, are about due to start their climb. And then there's Pittsburgh, roosting precariously near the cellar. Doesn't seem quite right, somehow.

(Special Cable To The Tribune).
NEW YORK, May 5.-Herb Pennock of the Athletics kept" the Yankees swing-ing wildly for seven innings today, weakened in the eighth long enough to allow three runs which came mainly as the resu1t of Babe Ruth's fifth circuit clout of the year, and then settled down thereafter enough to permit his team mates to win 5 to 3.
It wa.s the third straight for Philadelphia and with the exception of the eighth stanza, the Athletics held the upper hand throug'hout.
Covcleskie vas on the mound for the Senators today and showed enough old time stuff to let the Red Sox down without a run. Boston garnered four hits, two of them of tho scratch variety, off the veteran hurler while Washington was hammering' three Boston pitchers for 18 hits and 11 runs.
Pittsburgh beat Boston 3 to 2 in a pitching' duel in which Meadows had the best of the argument with Smith. The White Sox lost a chance to jump into the lead in the American League by 10sing to Detroit in a free hitting' contest. The Tig-ers made 14 hits count •fnt. çia mnnv nuis.

LONGCHAMP HAS
GOOD PROGRAM
The admission of three-year-olds in ail six races at Longchamp today ensures an interesting program.
Peter Pickem has selected Job as the best bet in the Prix Dollar, with Etrurie his second choice. Job is a four-year-old which has shown considerable improvement of late. The race carries a purse of 30,000 francs. • Twenty-three horses are scheduled to start in the Prix de Marnes, though probably half of this number will be scratched b e f o r e starting . time.

HARVARD INJURED BY TOO MANY
COOKS, AVERS PRESIDENT LOWELL
BOSTON, May 5.—Harvard's ath- letics have had too many cooks in the past.
Président A. Lawrence Lowell made " that declaration last night at a dinner in honor of the intcrcollegiate champion Harvard hockey team.
He also decried the movement to abolish intercollegiate sport. "Jt wou1d abolish a mainspring of incentive to exercise for men who can never be good enough to make any team," he asserted.
"A reasonable amount of victories is essential, 1 believe, if exercise is to gain the respect of those who will not shine in sports.
"Harvard athletics, conducted by an athletic committee in the past, had 'too many cooks.' Did yoti ever hear of an army J'lm by a committée? Now
- athletic control has been centred in one man, William J. Bingham.
"Abraham Lincoln learned something in the course of the war. At first, when a General met defeat hc chopped his head off vithout compunction, but he learned something. He learned to back Grant after the defeat of Cold Harbor.
"Mr. Bingham Avould be one of the last to believe that his ad voit will be marked by an -Liiiinterrupt(,(,l string of victories. He has no bed of roses, nor of eiderclown. I ask the alumni not to growl over defeat. I pledge him my support in fair weather and foui." President Clarence C. Little of Michis'an Universityj a Harvard alumnus, saw the greatest crime of the ag'e in any attempt to shorten youth. A unified control of athletics, he said, tended to bring sports within the scope of t h e ord in ary; u n d ç rgra d u a t e-

The Prix Petrarch ended in a close finish between Jazzband, Dureté, Erofite and Bilbao, the first named coming in ahead after a spirited struggle with Durete.
Inaudi confirmed his previous showings by winning the Prix Indian Chief after being led most of the route by Triomphal, -who lost out at the finish and was passed by Cassard and Sar— riac.
